as an 18 year old who is weeks away from finishing high school.... I say screw marriage!! All I want is a small two or three-bedroom house, a dog, a large HD tv, a nice new sports car. I want to work during the day, then catch a ballgame at night. No questions asked
that was me, lived that dream from 18-21. good years. But then I fell in love (am now 25) and have been regretting it ever since. seriously though there are certain things you miss. when my wife goes away for work (not often enough sadly) i go out and have a great time at clubs and stuff. but always happy when she walks back in the door. she's my girl - and she runs the household way too well!!
what does that mean?? anyway, im glad you recognise my work. alot of dudes getting a lot of joy out of that thread.
Frank: I told my wife I wouldn't drink tonight. Besides, I got a big day tomorrow. You guys have a great time. College Student: A big day? Doing what? Frank: Well, um, actually a pretty nice little Saturday, we're going to go to Home Depot. Yeah, buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that. Maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond, I don't know, I don't know if we'll have enough time.
I'm sorry, but this quote is directly related to a lot of the painful-to-read relationship issues and "b****es be crazy" posts and threads on this site.
Granted, it's a generalization, that video, meant to lampoon prevalent common thinking. We're not all like that, but for those of us who are not, I can certainly attest to how difficult it is to find someone who doesn't fall into that cookie-cutter mold of thinking.
I'm 32, life that exact life and am happy. This is how I wanted it to be. I've had many many chances to get married, and have had some great women around me, but nope, it is not for me. I love my life.
Just pulled up this gem. (Re: T Rex) I don't know how many times I can say this. We are two separate people. I've been hooked on this site, and I set up his account for him a few years ago. The reason I've posted accidentally as him was because I've been over at his house and forgot to log him out and log myself in, which was why whenever I did it, I edited it to say it was me. Sheesh. If I wanted to have a "secret" account, I certainly wouldn't go back and edit it to say it was me. Both JB and Harrisment have met both of us. Ask them.
A high school friend of mine recently walked down the aisle and I thought (wrongly) that she was happily married. She had heard about this "I Guess You'll Do" video and wanted to check it out so I found this thread and let her see it. Uggggghhhhhhhhh.....I wish with everything I had not showed it to her. Near the end she was crying and moaning and saying she was with him because he was nice and treated her well but it was all very shallow and unfulfilling to her. She then confessed that she did it because it was "comfortable" and could not bear the thought of having to be single again. Very, very sad.
